One our favorite spots to eat in Summerville. My wife and I usually share the Ribs for two - $28. It comes with 4 sides and about a rack and a half of ribs. We usually get the dry rub versus wet since we like their dry rub better. As far as sides, we like their corn sweet potato casserole. They used to bring corn bread automatically to the table. However, in recent years, you have to ask them to get some of their delicious, cake-like treats. Depending on he served, sometimes they charged for them. Their children's meals range from $4.99 to $5.99 depending on if they order the chicken tenders or ribs. As far as other entrees: their chicken and barbecue sandwiches are great as well. Our initial review, we gave them 5 stars. However, with our recent experience, the service was mediocre, hence the 4 stars. Overall, we still love their ribs and will continue coming back for more.

My Sticky Fingers experience can equate to a Pepto Bismol commercial. Extremely bad heart burn that lasted an entire night. Their food was not bad for a chain restaurant. Their service was outstanding. Everyone served with a smile and helpful attitude. I came into the restaurant with a large group of people and they were able to accommodate us rather quickly. The food was decent but was not in the same category as some of the other Barbeque Joints that I have been to. (Bessingers BBQ or The Barbeque Joint) They had many different sauces to dip your food in. Their sauces were very tasty and left you wanting more. Their dining area is spacious and had a number of booths or tables to choose from. Their mixed drinks are not bad either. (I only had one because I had to drive home.) It was not a bad restaurant but surely was not my favorite BBQ restaurant around Charleston.

Sticky Fingers is a decent chain BBQ place. They have good sauce and the ribs are tasty. The beef brisket is decent and the pulled pork isn't bad. Sticky Fingers isn't one of those "wow awesome BBQ," places, but it is a good place to get your fix. I've found the staff at this particular location are friendly and helpful.

Hi, We've go to Sticky Fingers as a group about once a month as a group. There have been around 25 of us. I so impressed when we go, they do everything they can to please us. The room is set up the way we ask, the food is really good, & the server is very pleasant. The manager also makes sure we're taken care. Thank you for all you do for us to make us feel welcome.

The food is average. Not bad but nothing special. If I want bbq I usually would prefer a most specialized local operation. Atmosphere is average for a chain restaurant. The service is always good and friendly.

So I am a bit disappointed because I was expecting great BBQ. I have used their BBQ sauce for years and have received great feedback on their sauce so when I heard we were going to South Carolina and there was a location close by I was expecting more than was delivered. 1. Ambiance: the restaurant is in a shopping complex that could use some refreshing. The seats where we sat were in need of a replacement. The TVs to watch could be a little bigger and they could use a few more TVs. 2. The selection of BBQ options were very limiting. For a place that makes some pretty darn good sauce I would have expected more beef choices. The ribs were great and so were the wings. The fried corn was delicious. Portion sizes to the prices paid were pretty good. 3. The staff at this location deserves an a+. They are very attentive. They are welcoming and I did not have to ask for a refill.

We love their food! It is all reasonably priced. The wings are the best in town! We always get them plain smoked and add our own BBQ sauce. The wings have more meat on them than any other wing place around. I love the Memphis style sauces too! The fried corn and Mac and cheese make great sides! The service is always great and friendly. The interior looks a bit old and could stand to be remodeled, but the food is great! One of our favorite places!

My family is new to the Charleston area and decided to check out Sticky Fingers in Summerville. While the flavor of the pulled pork was alright, the brisket was quite possibly the most disgusting slab of meat I've ever eaten. It was incredibly dry, tough and lacked flavor. Brisket should be falling apart and Sticky Fingers' brisket was like eating a brick. I was excited by the variety of sauces at first... until I tried them. They were just average. I wasn't wowed by any of them. They weren't horrible, they just weren't anything that I left the restaurant thinking about. In fact, my entire family was really underwhelmed by the food here. As my first barbecue experience after moving to the South, this was such a let down. I had better BBQ in Ohio before I moved down here. My family will never waste money here again.

Have been going to Sticky Fingers since moving to SC years ago. Sadly yesterday I had yet another poor experience at this location. The place was dead to begin with. We were seated by the hostess and then we just sat there and waited and waited. Not one person noticed us. After 15-20 minutes and another table was sat and waited on we got up and left. We did not feel as if we should have had to gotten up, located someone who worked there and begged them to wait on us. We came there to pay for a service and at this point felt our money would be better spent elsewhere. As we passed the hostess we told he "No one waited on us" and kept walking. She kind of gave me a look of oh well, who cares and didn't even say anything. Her look is what made me write this review. Is it not her job to inform the server they have a table? To make the customer feel as if they were wrong to expect someone to wait on them with one snotty look was uncalled for. This was the second time we saw this girl act rude. First time was when she was waiting on a togo customer who asked a question and her (the hostess) reply was in a smart ass tone. Maybe she doesn't realize she is like that and if that's the case she needs to be working in the kitchen not with customers. I could see if the place was busy but seriously until that second table was sat we were the only ones over on that side. On a positive we ended up over at Moose's where the food was good, service was friendly AND we spent half of what we would have if we would have stayed at SF. This review is ONLY of the service and not the food.

Sticky Fingers is my favorite BBQ anywhere. You have to try the wings. My wife and I think they are the best, even better than at wing places. We get them for football days. Ribs can be hit or miss. I've had the best fall of the bone ribs there and some overlooked. Chicken and pulled pork are also good. This location can use some improvement/renovation as it appears dated and worn inside and out. Food is usually great as is the service. I wish they would bring back the baked apples, they were excellent.

Not bad for a chain Rib joint. I enjoyed their fried onion appetizer as well as my buffalo chicken sandwich. Waitress was very attentive even though I was in a big group and all of our food came out in a timely matter. The buffalo chicken sandwich was tasty and I definitely reccomend it. Their Tee'd off adult beverage was also delicious and is a must try.

Because I'm trying to get to 100 reviews, I decided to add reviews from our 2010 vacation. (Sad commentary on my life goals?) I do keep trip journals when I travel, so I don't have to rely much on memory. This review reflects our visit on May 16, 2010. We visited at lunch, early and the restaurant was not crowded. Service was helpful, friendly and quick. There was only pork and chicken on the menu. Multiple BBQ sauces on the table (reminiscent of Red Hot and Blue's here in the Dallas area. ) I had pork and thought it was decent. The collard greens were tasty as well. Good sweet tea.

Visited last week during Flower town festival. Restaurant was very busy and we were a very large party of 12. We were seated very quickly in their banquet room. Servers were great and suggested that we try their ribs and wings. As we had visited last year we were familiar with the menu and ordered several appetizers including nachos and wings. Both were fresh and full of flavor. Most of our entries were combination platters of ribs, wings, pork and brisket. All of the entrees has great smoke flavor and were very large. We ordered several desserts including peach cobbler, bread pudding and banana pudding. The desserts were all HUGE and all were priced at under $5. Bathrooms are a bit dated but were immaculate and smelled fresh and clean. We will definetley be back next year.

Eating at Sticky Fingers when Summerville is literally equidistant to most of the best Lowcountry BBQ spots would be like if my dad owned a fishing company in my ocean-side town but was ticked off at him so I take my family to eat at Red Lobster. Maybe I think this exacts revenge in some passive-aggressive way, but I'm really just hurting my taste buds in the process. People eating at Sticky Fingers in Mt. P are just unfortunately misguided tourists, but anyone eating at Sticky Fingers in Summerville has no such excuse and must be in the midst of the aforementioned culinary "teenage rebellion phase" - don't let them drag you down on their way to "rock bottom". ;) Check my Yelp BBQ list for a guide to Lowcountry Que, and you'll go home happy.

It's a BBQ joint with your typical BBQ stuff like pulled pork, smoked chicken, turkey, ribs, etc. They have several sauces. My two faces are the Carolina Sweet and Habanero Hot. When combined, it provides the perfect sweet and spicy sauce to your meats. Surprisingly they have a buffet going on on Sundays. Not much of a selection so I just ordered off the menu.
